Hemp seeds have numerous health benefits.

We all know that chia and flax seeds are terrific, but there is another seed on the market that is poised to put them both to shame: the hemp seed.

Consider blending up in smoothie, adding to your morning bowl of oatmeal or just sprinkling on a salad for a great, low-fat way to add a lot of nutrients to your diet.
